In the lush, verdant bamboo forest, a perfect, voluptuous figure, as white as jade, exuded an irresistible allure. Her beautiful face, unintentionally, carried a bewitching charm, akin to that of a fairy. Her slender, fair neck curved with an elegant arc. As the gaze slowly moved down, it fell upon a pair of full, perky breasts, round and tender. Perhaps due to the scorching heat, a drop of clear water appeared on her neck, rolling down and tracing a slightly lascivious curve over one of the full, round breasts before finally dripping down. Her delicate waist, seemingly not even a hand’s breadth wide, conveyed a sense of resilient softness. Her flat and tender belly, devoid of any excess fat, was so alluring that it made one’s hands itch to touch it gently.
Below that slender waist was a wild, purple snake tail, which swayed with a peculiar allure, revealing its exotic charm. In this small bamboo grove, this enticing figure, coveted by many men, was exposed in the open, a sight that would delight the beholder.
In the underbrush, Xiao Yan stared in amazement at the naked, alluring body that had driven men wild. Inadvertently, a surge of evil fire rose in his lower abdomen, causing his face to flush red. After a long moment, he gritted his teeth and summoned his Dou Qi, suppressing the restless evil fire within him.
“This woman… is too terrifying, isn’t she?” Raising his head again, Xiao Yan dared only fix his eyes on the floating, burning flame in the air, no longer daring to glance at the seductive, voluptuous figure.
He feared that the slightest carelessness might expose his presence. “Queen Medusa is naturally endowed with a bewitching allure. For men, this allure is like the strongest aphrodisiac. Of course, with her current strength, she can control this allure with ease. However, when she is unclothed, that allure will be naturally released. Hmm… be careful, young man, for lust is a double-edged sword.”
Hearing the Elder’s words, Xiao Yan could only chuckle dryly and nod sheepishly. “Master, when shall we make our move?”
The intense heat around them made Xiao Yan wipe his sweat and ask in his mind. “Wait a bit longer. Though she is now focused on the Flame, if she discovers your presence, she will deal with you first. Although I can take you away, the Flame…”
“Then we shall wait a bit longer,” Xiao Yan said, his mouth twitching, and fell silent once more, his gaze fixed on the empty area nearby.
Letting the purple brocade robe slip to the ground, Queen Medusa took a step forward. Her enchanting eyes fixed on the floating, green flame, she bit her red lips and murmured softly, “If I were to follow the conventional path of cultivation, it would be unknown when I could reach the threshold of Battle Sect. To quickly advance to Battle Sect, there is only this path.”
Her slender, jade-like hand gently touched her fragrant shoulder as Queen Medusa bent slightly towards the Flame. Then, she slowly raised her head, looking towards the area of intense energy fluctuations near the city wall. A cold glint flashed in her eyes as she brushed aside the strands of black hair from her forehead, saying, “If the evolution is successful, all humans here will remain in the desert forever!”
After uttering these icy words, Queen Medusa casually pulled off the purple ribbon that held her hair. Instantly, her smooth, black tresses cascaded down, reaching her slender waist. She shook her head lightly, and her hair flowed with the movement. This casual action added to her alluring charm.
Clasping her hands together, Queen Medusa closed her eyes, her jade-like hands forming strange hand seals. As her hand seals changed, the energy fluctuations in the bamboo forest suddenly became intense.
Hidden in the shrubs, Xiao Yan was startled by this change. His body tensed, ready to respond to any sudden situation. “What is she planning to do?”
As the fluctuations grew stronger, a massive energy vortex began to form in the sky above the small island. Staring at this, Xiao Yan exclaimed in surprise. “I’m not quite sure. Queen Medusa’s evolution is quite mysterious. I’ve only heard of it but never seen it… It seems this process is not very precise. Even if she succeeds, no one knows what she will evolve into. It seems to be random…”
Elder Pharmacist sighed, “But one thing is certain: it will still be related to snakes.”
Listening to the somewhat chaotic words, Xiao Yan shook his head wordlessly, abandoning his intention to ask further. His gaze remained fixed on Queen Medusa, whose body was now enveloped in a dense, glowing aura.
The light continuously fluctuated, and soon, a roar, similar to a lion’s but also like a tiger’s, echoed from the light. Soon after, the blinding light surged. Under this intense light, Xiao Yan reflexively closed his eyes. When he opened them again, he was shocked to see a gigantic, ten-zhang-long purple snake hovering in the air above the island.
The snake’s body was long and powerful, exuding an elegant beauty. Its pale purple pupils, unlike the cruel, ferocious ones Xiao Yan had encountered in the lake, were calm and serene.
The purple snake slowly twisted in the air, turning its huge head towards the chaotic city wall. At that moment, a cold glint flickered in its pale purple eyes. By the city wall, the robed figure floated in the air, casting a cool glance at the bedraggled Flower Snake. Suddenly, as if sensing something, she turned her head, her gaze fixed on the sky filled with purple light in another corner of the city. Her eyes narrowed slightly, and she murmured, “Is the evolution about to begin?”
“Damn humans. Once Her Majesty the Queen successfully evolves, none of you will escape!” Wiping the blood from her lips, Flower Snake said icily.
“If the evolution fails, she will naturally disappear from this world, without us needing to act,” Flower Snake’s threat did not provoke the robed figure. She seemed to have a naturally calm disposition, rarely showing panic. Such a person was like the clouds in the sky, lazy and tranquil, yet wise and composed, overseeing all things.
“And you know well that this evolution is unpredictable. Even if she succeeds, no one knows what she will become,” the robed figure said softly.
“Her Majesty the Queen will definitely succeed!” Changing her expression, Flower Snake shouted fiercely, stomping on the city wall and rushing towards the robed figure with surging Dou Qi.
“In fact, I’m also very curious about the result of Queen Medusa’s evolution,” the robed figure said, smiling faintly, and waved her hands. A dozen green wind blades, each over ten zhang long, sliced through the air towards the approaching Flower Snake.
“Is this Queen Medusa’s true form?” Gazing in awe at the giant purple snake in the sky, Xiao Yan muttered softly.
“The Snake People are different from humans. Shortly after their birth, a snake-shaped soul is infused into their bodies through a secret method. As they grow older and stronger, this accompanying soul merges with them until they become one. When they encounter strong enemies, they can summon this true form, significantly boosting their power. This is the last trump card of the Snake People,” the Elder explained in Xiao Yan’s mind.
“Oh…” Nodding slightly, Xiao Yan raised his head, rubbing his chin. “What is she going to do? Is she planning to swallow the Flame? If she does, what will happen to me?”
“Well…” Hearing Xiao Yan’s question, the Elder hesitated, then said helplessly, “I’m not quite sure. Frankly, I don’t think she can successfully evolve. The destructive power of the Flame is no joke. Even though she is a Battle Emperor, it’s still very difficult to resist it.”
Xiao Yan let out a breath, smiled bitterly, and said, “Let’s wait a bit longer. If I rush out now, I might be burned to ashes by the raging Green Lotus Earth Core Flame.”
“Yes, be careful. If anything goes wrong, be ready to flee. Both the Flame and Queen Medusa are extremely dangerous creatures,” the Elder reminded.
Nodding with a bitter smile, Xiao Yan heightened his vigilance, his eyes fixed on the giant purple snake in the air without blinking.
The massive body of the purple snake circled in the air, with a dense, purple glow emanating from its body, enveloping the entire temple.
“She is setting up an energy barrier, probably to prevent Gu He and the others from interfering. It seems this evolution requires a quiet environment. She’s quite unlucky to run into these guys today,” the Elder said with a smile.
“True, but if they hadn’t stirred up the waters, we wouldn’t have had the chance to enter,” Xiao Yan nodded, smiling. His eyes remained fixed on the giant purple snake in the air. After a moment, his face suddenly hardened, and he said, “She’s starting!”
As Xiao Yan spoke, the giant purple snake, after circling a few times, let out a crisp, low cry and plunged headlong into the green flame.
“This madwoman… is actually daring to clash directly with the Flame!” Seeing the purple snake’s action, Xiao Yan gasped, quickly retreating.
Under Xiao Yan’s intense gaze, the giant purple snake dived down without hesitation, plunging into the green flame. At the moment the purple snake entered the Flame, a piercing scream from Queen Medusa, almost chilling to the bone, echoed through the air.
